565 Devourer of Gods
o check on her later." I soothed Miss Lin with a few words.She relaxed a little and spoke slowly, "Oh, by the way, I went to lunch with my brother at the Ritz-Carlton today. I saw your brother there."...It's so dark here that I reached out and summoned a Thousand Layers Lotus. Its petals illuminated the darkness with a pure, ethereal glow.
The Ghost Princess appeared before the skull, her sinister smile fixed on me as she spoke in a honeyed voice: "Thank you... for bringing this lotus... all your accumulated merit is inside, isn't it Kekeke..."
Is this lotus flower any use to her Only the base has turned into white jade, what little good fortune it holds, what can she possibly do with it
"Ugh..." A faint struggle could be heard from the darkness behind her, and my brother almost instantly recognized whose voice it was.
His hand on the back of the Qiankun Sword was pulsing with veins.
The Ghost Princess smiled triumphantly: "This delicate young miss has already been tormented by yin energy to the point of death. I dare not frighten her...I'm afraid she'll be scared to death...Then there will only be a corpse left. I guess Young Master Mu wouldn't like to hold a dead girl, would he"
Lin Yanqin My heart skipped a beat. My brother's eyes confirmed my guess.
Little Ni frowned and said, "I'm going to save them..."
The Ghost Princess raised her hand, and a skeleton on the ground was manipulated by her to walk beside Lin Yanqin. Struggling cries soon echoed in the darkness as she was choked!
To test the limits of this young lady, I would hold her throat every day until she lost consciousness, just one second before her eyes rolled back... After a few days of research, she can now last about forty seconds... Mu Xia Qiao, is that enough time for you to come over and hand me that lotus
I squeezed my brother's hand and said in a low voice, "Alright, this hostage is heavy enough. Take ten steps forward, and I'll give him to you."
Ten steps is enough to create distance. Little brat and my brother can go save people.
I held a small lotus flower in my hand and took two steps forward. Suddenly, I saw a half-human-tall lamp stand beside me.
A bronze crane lamp, coated with verdigris, stood on the ground.
What is this
In a dilapidated warehouse, the Ghost Princess still wants to maintain the grandeur of royalty
"Mu Xiaqiao!" She shouted sharply, and Lin Yanqin's pained struggle reached my ears.
I calmed my mind slightly, and with a furtive glance, I noticed there was more than one such lighthouse. Dozens of them stood in the shadows, looming ominously.
The small lotus flower in her hand illuminated Zhu Weiti's pale and bizarre face. After the ghostly aura was dispelled, only shrunken cheekbones and deeply sunken cheeks remained.
"Zhu Weiti, this little lotus flower is nothing but something that helps me accumulate blessings and cultivate my skills. What use would it be for you to have it" I deliberately drew her attention.
She stared intently at the small lotus flower, the excitement on her face growing increasingly difficult to contain: "What use is it Mu Xiaoqiao, you truly don't know how fortunate you are... A lotus like this is a magical artifact only usable by immortals. The accumulated merit and cultivation within it, if I could use it—"
Before I could finish my sentence, something suddenly happened over at my brother's place!
The sound of bones cracking echoed, and my brother grabbed Lin Yanqin.
"Yun Fan! Please save me, I'm in so much pain, woo woo woo..." Lin Yanqin's cries rang out.
Don't be afraid, don't be afraid... It's okay...
All good
"Ah---!!! Mu Yunfan!! You, you--" Lin Yanqin screamed hysterically.
What happened Why is Lin Yanqin screaming
Where's my brother!
The sudden change in the darkness left me stunned.
In that instant, Zhu Weiti lunged at me. A skeletal hand seized my palm's lotus!
Zhu Weiti's joyful laughter and my brother's sneer almost sounded at the same time.
I was a little flustered for a moment, what's going on!
Lin Yanqin's voice roared in the darkness, cursing my brother. My brother replied softly: "Don't pretend, if Qin really gets caught, she wouldn't cry and beg me to save her. She would most likely tell me to leave her alone... You guys aren't acting convincing at all, tsk tsk, you'll never understand the meaning of love!"
I saw Xu Yaqi charging out of the darkness. She was clutching her arm, where my brother had stabbed her with a military thorn. A talisman for exorcising demons burned behind her, and she roared like she was being branded as she pounced at the feet of the Ghost Princess.
"Princess! Princess! Help me..."
Zhu Weiti glared at her and snarled, "Good for nothing. Just keep your shell... How dare you, after refining the remnants of this woman's soul within you, you actually think you're a person When you die and your soul leaves your body, then come call me Princess..."
She snorted coldly and ignored Xu Yaqi's plea for help.
As expected, Xu Yaqi would wake up from her vegetative state. It was her doing. The ghost's unhealthy obsession with a living body made this female ghost roar in unwillingness as she tried to break free from the shell.
Zhu Weiti impatiently clenched her claws!
A bleached bone hand flew in and inserted itself into Xu Yaqi's face——
Eyes, cheeks, brain……
I just watched as these red and white things flowed out, Xu Yaqi's body falling to the ground like a marionette with its strings cut.
She should have died long ago... When she was arrogant and domineering, did she ever think she would meet her end, her soul scattered, her body crumbling like rotten cotton to dust
Zhu Weiti grasped the lotus flower with both hands, laughing wildly: “Enough, enough… With this immortal aura, I can do it!”
What is she going to do
I was afraid she might suddenly go mad, and I involuntarily took a step back, my elbow bumping against a bronze lampstand—a single crane standing on one leg, crafted from bronze.
Zhu Weiti's hair stood on end, and her ghostly aura surged wildly, almost ripping off the roof.
She raised her hand, and wisps of ghostly fire flickered to life one by one. In the darkness, clusters of eerie green flames danced and burned on the bronze crane lamps.
Are these lamps filled with human oil
twenty-one lamps.
What kind of formation is this
"Little Qiao! Retreat first—" My brother's voice rushed into my ear, he must have wanted to reach out and pull me!
Though I stood right before him, he reached out to someone else.
Someone else
When did so many illusions start appearing around me!
Zhu Weiti laughed wildly: “ … I like this expression of surprise the most. Every time I see the enemy showing surprise at the illusion, or even killing each other, I feel happy!”
“That's just child's play. You've only learned some petty tricks to deceive the ignorant masses.” I scoffed.
"Roarrr~~" Little Nie suddenly pounced beside me, like a mighty lion. I reached out and stroked its neck.
"This is the formation of the Twenty-One Ghosts of the Underworld, let's get out of here!" Xiao Nie arched me onto its back, bit down on my brother's backpack, and charged outwards.
"BOOM!!!"
A loud bang!
A blinding white light descended from the heavens, shattering the entire warehouse to pieces. Only the twenty-one Crane Bronze Lanterns remained unscathed.
Smoke drifted, and the enormous full moon in the sky was reduced to just a sliver at its edge.
Such as a hook.
Xiaonie placed us on a bamboo platform and, gazing at the scene before us, murmured, "So there really is such a summoning formation..."
My brother couldn't help but growl, "What in the world is this!"
"...There are seven celestial bodies, plus fourteen, making a total of twenty-one Yin spirits. The evil stars Luo Hu and Ji Du, which are also known as..." eclipse gods."nce to pay our respects at the mountain gate. Please forgive us." My older brother said with a smile.The old Abbot sighed and said, "You're here, which means you have a heart to solve the troubles. Th...
